Chapter 551 - This Is Not Over
Di Jiu only realized what these people meant when he came out. It was different going in and coming out because the Void Chaos flowed backward and the entire Wormhole was like a whirlpool engulfing him inside. It was extremely difficult with every step he made to go outside.
Di Jiu sighed. It was no wonder that the people who were trapped here were unwilling to go. If it were him, he would also be unwilling to go, as they would die for sure. Based on ordinary walking speed, he supposed they would not necessarily walk half a kilometer in four hours, and it was about several kilometers from here to the cave entrance. The next wave of the Worm Tide would surely catch up with them.
It was hard for them to walk in the Wormhole, unlike the worms that seemed to be gifted. They came and went like the wind in the Wormhole, as fast as lightning.
Once everyone went out, they found it difficult and a few cultivators even wanted to go back in. They could not simply come out of the Wormhole by relying on their courage.
However, they very soon sensed the surrounding counter whirlpool weakening. Di Jiu’s voice could be heard right away. “Everyone, hurry up. Catch up with my speed.”
Di Jiu’s nomological arrays immediately blocked the chaotic whirlpool, and its speed was way faster than earlier on.
When they sensed the surrounding force engulfing them instantly weakening, the cultivators left and right felt great joy and frantically rushed out together following Di Jiu.
The group of people only spent one hour as they rushed out of the Wormhole. Hundreds of eyes welcomed them with shock.
Mu Jie saw Di Jiu at first glance and called out in pleasant surprise, “Daoist Zimo, you actually rushed out of the Wormhole?”
Once he entered his Shielding Array, Di Jiu once again set up a level-nine Spiritual Force isolation restriction. He did not need to rest at all, but the first thing he had to do was refine an array disc.
Di Jiu’s Array Dao had already surpassed the rank of a level-nine Immortal Array Emperor. This time, he used the best materials to refine the array disc and disregarded the techniques. It definitely would surpass a level-nine immortal array disc.
As for whether one would know if the array disc had been just refined by him, Di Jiu did not worry about it at all. He cultivated the Nomological Dao with a certain understanding of the time law. After the time law restrictions were mixed into the array disc, he could easily cover the traces of time on the array disc and also mix some Chaos Essence Energy from his Ninth World into it. It was hard to see when a treasure like this array disc had just been refined.
Di Jiu did not care about whether it would be found out many years later by someone. He had to get through the current situation first.
Di Jiu spent a whole day refining this array disc better.
When he came out, everyone had already once again repelled numerous worm attacks.
“Daoist Zimo, you’re already alright?” Mu Jie asked happily when she saw Di Jiu come out and approached him.
Di Jiu replied with cupped fists, “Thank you, Union Master Mu. I was poisoned with some worm poison previously. After recuperating for a day, I’m basically fine now.”
At the moment, the cultivators who had been saved by Di Jiu had the chance to thank him. Without Di Jiu, none of them would have made it out. As a result, Di Jiu also discovered that the woman was called Heng Shuangqi. He reckoned Heng Shuangqi would never have thought that Di Jiu had entered the Wormhole because of her and even taken revenge on her behalf.
“Daoist Zimo, Guild Master Ni has been engulfed by the Wormhole this time. I’m afraid this matter is far from over…” Mu Jie was worried.
Di Jiu looked at Mu Jie doubtfully and asked, “Why is that so?”
Mu Jie sighed and casually set up a simple isolation restriction. “Daoist Zimo, you probably don’t know how strong the Moving Essence Chamber of Commerce is. This matter may seem unrelated to me, and I know you even entered the Wormhole to save Ni Luan by force, but the Moving Essence Chamber of Commerce’s Ni Xiren is very unreasonable and very strong. I will not be the only unlucky one in the end. Also, I’m really sorry but I’m afraid you can’t keep that array disc anymore…”
Mu Jie was very apologetic. Di Jiu had braved death to find a remedy for her but he had to hand over his treasure.
Di Jiu remained silent for a long time before sighing. “Let’s talk when the time comes. Moreover, the Moving Essence Chamber of Commerce has not sent anyone over yet. Maybe Ni Luan has not necessarily perished.”
Mu Jie’s eyes lit up when she heard that. That’s right. If Ni Luan had perished, the Moving Essence Chamber of Commerce’s Ni Xiren would have already known about it. If Ni Xiren had discovered that his son had perished here, how could he not have sent anyone over yet?
The only possibility was that Ni Luan really had not perished yet. Hadn’t a lot of people been saved from the Wormhole? Perhaps, Ni Luan was hiding somewhere.
